Hello Again!

Remember way back here where I began telling you about our Christmas Day afternoon at Papa & Ah-ee’s and concluded with “to be continued…” indicating that I would be coming back and sharing the rest of our Christmas Day with you?  Yeah, that was almost a month ago.  And.  I had every intention of  sharing the conclusion of our Christmas with you in a timely manner.  What got in the way then?  Well…that would be life!  Our life has been extremely busy!  We’ve done quite a bit of this over the last two months…

One of our local churches kicked off a new Upwards program right after Christmas and we were thrilled!  So every Saturday for the past two months have found us at the gym watching basketball games!

We also had a Saturday filled with this…

Our church hosted a flag football tournament to raise money for missions and I must say it was one of the best days I can remember in a long time!  I haven’t laughed so hard in forever;-)

We’ve also had birthdays…lots and lots of birthdays have been celebrated!

So as you can see, we’ve been extremely busy with life…playing sports, spending time with family and friends, field trips, p.j. day for Jesse, biography dress up day for Trey, Favorite Team Sunday, Friend Sunday, Valentine’s, our annual school auction…but most importantly making cherished memories with our boys!

And while I hope to be back soon to share all the nitty-gritty details of our January and February as well the tons and tons of photos I’ve taken (did I mention that I got a new camera?!?!), I can’t make any promises.  Cause while our last basketball game is this Saturday, soccer is right around the corner…along with family dinners, choir competition, play dates,  school activities, more birthdays, more field trips…and the list goes on and on!  So for now, I leave you with…to be continued…
